I think I probably only rate this one quite so highly because of a sentimental attachment to the Dr Horrible universe. I didn't think the art was THAT good, although some of the stories were great - the evolution of Moist in particular! Also the last (I think?) story, of Dr Horrible meeting Capt Hammer and Penny - and the same event being told from three different perspectives. It SO worked.

We stayed at the Anabella several times before. The room was clean, housekeeping was great, the property and pool are well kept, and the location is perfect.
We purchased a groupon that included breakfast daily with our room deal. The service was awful at the Tangerine grill not just one day but 3 days in a row! They did not have enough staff, they messed up our orders, we asked for cream twice and ended up borrowing from another table who also had to ask several times too, people got up and walked out, one day the bellhops were busing tables, there was no teamwork, the host didnt use a list to keep up the order of people waiting to go into the Tangerine grill instead he went by memory but he was forgeting the order in which people came and he skipped us over, we asked the waitress at the pool if we could order drinks and she replied that she was so busy because she is all alone and that we should just go to the bar to get our own drinks as she proceeded to go take other orders by the poolside.
The spa there is a rip-off but those girls are smart, they may act like they don't speak English well, but they can tack on to the bill without disclosing how much extras are, when asked they gave false information, I couldn't get comfortable as one was doing my pedicure and the other was pulling me to the right side to do my manicure instead of her moving to each side, and the nail polishing job sucked!

A Serious Man - DVD
I'd always thought that ours was a generation of pussies, that next to our parents, we're a bunch of indulged wasters, with the intellectual teat of the internet killing our sense of wanderlust, encouraging us to expect everything on a plate. Not only did our parents not have the Internet or Sky+, they had shit like World Wars, rationing, the 3-day week and Mike Yarwood to deal with.
But now I'm not so sure. We're actually living in the worst era many of us will know - dominated by the terror threat, our own Vietnam situation, aggressive unemployment cutbacks, Chris Moyles and a pronounced economic downturn. The way you judge the fibre of society during a crisis is to look at the art that's produced - during the Great Depression, they regressed into the comfort of traditional folkiness and sought heroic saviours, which gave birth to the original DC superhero comics.
But what is the underlying theme that dominates our times? Even greater self-inflicted suffering: whether it's torture porn (which even the artsy French joined in with) or the intellectual thumbscrews of Michael Haneke or Lars von Trier's Anti-Christ, we've proven that we are truly robust on a deep level.
Case in point - a friend was once telling me (yeah, it's always a friend) about the trend for uploading videos of people's reactions to the gross-out porn clip Two Girls One Cup. Whose reaction indicated the weakest constitution? A granny's. Case closed (ignoring any arguments about media saturation leading to increased desensitivity).
Which brings me to A Serious Man, in which the Coen Brothers join in this vogue for intolerable cruelty by unleashing a torrent of misery on poor, harmless Jewish teacher Larry Gopnik (Michael Stuhlbarg) in the name of entertainment - and god bless them for it, if this kind of power-cut black comedy is what we get as a result.
With his son Danny's bar mitzvah weeks away, Larry suddenly finds his life turning to absolute shit - first his wife calmly springs a divorce on him, dumping him for the astoundingly loathsome Sy Ableman, his job at the college comes under threat, he's kicked out of his house and driven to the brink of financial ruin, while death and misfortune dog his every turn. Seeking guidance from his faith is no use - a string of rabbis seek to instruct him, only to prove that they're of no use either. The poor sod has just got to cope with it on his own.
After the mainstream grandstanding of No Country For Old Men and Burn After Reading, A Serious Man offers the chance for the Coens to reassert the indie credentials - shorn of a huge budget and A-listers, they've made a strikingly personal film, yet their sheer talent as film-makers means that this is still as great an achievement as many of their classics, and no less accessible.
It's quite a simple, finely honed tale of a man questioning his fate and faith, but it's executed with such majesty and brutality that you just have to bow down. Despite being steeped in Judaism and peppered with Hebrew, the legendary overriding dark Jewish humour makes A Serious Man a compulsive pleasure. One thing that the Coens do so well is convey comedic charm and depth of character by the merest of details - from the bow-legged teacher's assistant to Danny's pal's rabid swearing and the playfully chewy dialogue you get such an immense feel for the characters.
Another of the Coens' great traits is their ability to mess with the conventional ways of telling a story to make their work feel fresh: the classical narrative structure is to take a person, disrupt their life situation, allowing the film to become about them resolving that disruption and creating a new status quo before the end credits roll. Here, the boys totally go freestyle with that, spending the entire film disrupting Larry's status quo, then scarcely even giving him the pleasure of a happy ending.
The casting is nigh on genius, too. Despite being packed with unknowns, they're all perfect, from Fred Melaman's luridly abominable Sy Ableman to the hapless rabbis struggling with the limitations of their teachings. Stuhlbarg holds it together with a turn of restraint that threatens to boil over at any moment. You can't help but watch in admiration as the poor sod copes with all that's thrown at him.
Sharp, poignant, funny and wise, A Serious Man represents a smarter entry into the Coens' catalogue. With their ability to make films that drag the magical and the absurd out of the everyday, and their flair for a great story, the Coens have again shown that they're among the more masterful film-makers around.

I discovered Dave's Garden way back in February 2003, when seeking information about the Society Garlic plant.
I started that day adding my own images to PlantFiles and I then embarked on a mammoth task of going back through all my plant photographs (which started back in 1966), scanning them from slides and adding them to PlantFiles.
I have added 5 images just about every day for the last seven and a half years and this morning I added my last 9 images, bringing the total to 11074 images.
That will not be the last time I add pictures to PlantFiles, but from now on it will be much less regular and only as and when I take fresh photographs. We have just started autumn here so it is not a good time for flowers so there may be a lull before my next pictures.
I have a trip to Madagascar and South Africa planned for August, so I hope to have something different to add when I return.
Signing off for now,
End of an Era
I discovered Dave's Garden way back in February 2003, when seeking information about the Society Garlic plant.
Ken, your photos have been a treasure and a resource for a vast number of people. Thank you for being such a blessing! Have a great trip. I'm sure we're all looking forward to seeing what you find! ^_^
Ken, I can only say a humble thank-you for all the photos you've shared (and I hope you will continue to share!) You're a wonderful testament to what can be accomplished when members share what they know with others.
Many of the Plants I seek out are because of your photos! :-) Have a wonderful Trip

A numerical study is conducted to investigate the dynamic behavior of earth dams. The numerical investigation employs a fully nonlinear dynamic finite difference analysis incorporating a simple elastic perfectly plastic constitutive model to describe the stress-strain response of the soil and the Rayleigh damping to increase the level of hysteretic damping. The extended Masing rules are implemented into the constitutive model to explain more accurately the soil response under general cyclic loading. The soil stiffness and hysteretic damping change with loading history. The procedures for calibrating the constructed numerical model with centrifuge test data and also a real case history are explained. For the latter, the Long Valley (LV) earth dam subjected to the 1980 Mammoth Lake earthquake as a real case-history is analyzed and the obtained numerical results are compared with the real measurements at the site in both the time and frequency domains. Relatively good agreement is observed between computed and measured quantities. It seems that the Masing rules combined with a simple elasto-plastic model gives reasonable numerical predictions. Afterwards, a comprehensive parametric study is carried out to identify the effects of dam height, input motion characteristics, soil behavior, strength of the shell materials and dam reservoir condition on the dynamic response of earth dams. Three real earthquake records with different levels and peak acceleration values (PGAs) are used as input motions. The results show that the crest acceleration decreases when the dam height increases and no amplification is observed. Further, more inelastic behavior and more earthquake energy absorption are observed in higher dams.

I am a liberal who voted for President Obama. That being said, I thought David Frum's book was very insightful and well-reasoned. I may disagree with many of his views, but I think he has hit the nail on the head regarding this election.
If the big surprise for the Republican party was that President Obama won re-election and the self-appointed wealthy messiah lost, this book may help you understand what really happened. Not only did the Romney campaign have an unrealistic expectation of the people's will, the continuing parade of Mr. Romney's gaffes convinced a substantial percentage of the electorate that the Republican nominee was simply too out of touch with the current state of the nation. Mr. Frum's slender book offers a focused and precise analysis of what happened, why it happened, and what the Republican Party needs to do to regain traction in the face of the seismic changes now transforming the American political demographic. Published within days of the election, Frum's cogent prose offers penetrating insight into a catalog of missteps, mistakes, and misconceptions that are tragically funny and, equally, tragically telling. This clear-headed review of one of the biggest surprises in recent electoral politics -- at least to Republicans -- outlines a plan the Party can implement if it hopes to retain any semblance of relevance going forward. Read it and laugh, or read it and think, but read it. Incidentally, I found this to be an excellent NOOK book. The NOOK format lends itself beautifully to the scope and length of the volume. And, since it's now a part of my e-library, I'm not likely to lose it on a shelf some place and forget where it is. That will make it convenient if I want to read it again in 2016, if the Republicans lose that election, too. In fact, the format was so convenient, I almost missed turning the pages.
Not about Romney. Shoud be called Why Republicans Are Out of Favor.
David Frum has shown a light on the Republican Party that was greatly needed. Every person who sincerely cares about where the Republicans are going in the future needs to read this book. Unfortunately, I have a feeling the "leadership" will try to point their lemmings to the kool aid pitches instead. Frum really raises more questions than he answers, but they are vital to the survival of the party. I hope everyone will take the time to read this brief but accurate assessment of the last election.
This was a hard book to understand. Too many facts and figures. I wish it could have been written in a more simplistic manner.

2012.06.15 "Trust your gut." - Barbara Walters
Wikiquote Quotes: Barbara Jill Walters
Uno dei motivi per cui Truman Capote s'interessa tanto alla gente è che rifiuta di farsi annoiare dal prossimo. Se gli capita di parlare con qualcuno che lo annoia a morte, si domanda: «Perché questa persona mi fa sbadigliare? Perché non desta la mia curiosità.» Capote comincia allora a studiare le caratteristiche dell'interlocutore: i lineamenti, la pettinatura, il modo di parlare ecc. Cerca d'immaginare che cosa la persona noiosa pensi di sé stessa, quali possano essere la sua vita, i suoi gusti e le sue abitudini. Per trovare risposta a questi interrogativi comincia a rivolgerle domande, e ben presto è talmente assorto in quest'indagine che non si annoia più. (da Talk With Practically Anybody About Practically Anything, Selezione dal Reader's Digest, giugno 1973)
Wikiquote Quotes: Barbara Walters
Był bardzo zasmucony karykaturami, które ukazały się w amerykańskiej prasie po wprowadzeniu stanu wojennego. Poirytowany, jakby nieobecny, niezbyt sympatyczny. Miał ciemne okulary, więc powiedziałam mu, że ważne jest, by widzowie mieli z moim rozmówcą kontakt wzrokowy. - Opis: o wywiadzie przeprowadzonym 23 lipca 1983 r. z Wojciechem Jaruzelskim podczas którego generał po raz pierwszy publicznie zdjął okulary. - Źródło: wysokieobcasy.pl, 28 sierpnia 2009

Gun Control
NPR's Brian Naylor reports that members of the Republican controlled House of Representatives say they'll pass new gun control legislation, when they return from their Memorial Day recess. The Senate already has passed a bill, which requires background checks on purchases at gun shows and a ban on the import of large capacity ammunition clips. The House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime heard conflicting testimony yesterday about how to stop gun violence in schools.

Some noises are just too loud for your ears, like a lawn mower or jet engine. If a noise makes you feel uncomfortable, it is probably too loud and could result in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Although research is ongoing, currently NIHL is permanent and irreversible, but it is preventable.
SAFEEars!® strives to motivate individuals of all ages to take action against noise-induced hearing loss by understanding the cause and the solutions, because damage incurred today can last a lifetime. By clicking on the link, you can discover how sensorineural hearing loss (hearing loss due to excessive exposure to noise) can affect your hearing, through a Hearing Loss Simulator, courtesy of the Better Hearing Institute.
SAFEEars! materials are available for a variety of settings – from elementary, middle or high school, to the work place, club meetings and more.
Kids are Listening and Listen Up activities in the manual provide hands-on activities for children in grades three through eight.
Earplugs, bookmarks, posters and bags provide opportunities for individuals to influence others and create awareness in regards to noise-induced hearing loss.

The Carson Valley Sertoma Club, of Carson Valley, Nevada, held its annual Book Scholarship banquet to announce and honor its new scholarship recipients of 2016. The Book Scholarship program was started to help support local students attend college.

The Sertoma Club @ the Villages, in Villages, Florida, held its 16th annual baseball camp for Deaf and Hard of Hearing children between the ages of 7-15. This camp provided young players with the opportunity to learn and play the game of baseball.
Students from the Central Lakes College and Brainerd High School American Sign Language Clubs of Brainerd, Minnesota, gathered for a photo during their trip to Gallaudet University in Washington D.C. This rare opportunity was made possible with the help and support of the Brainerd Sertoma Club.

Introduction: Neuromuscular ultrasound (NMUS), an emerging diagnostic subspecialty field, has become an important extension of the electrodiagnostic examination. However, there are no formal guidelines on how to appropriately report NMUS results. Methods: The AANEM convened an expert panel to develop recommendations for reporting NMUS findings. Results: Providers should describe the reason for referral, the nerves or muscles studied, and normal values as well as numerical values for the results of imaging. Muscle imaging reports should also include a description of how gray-scale values were calculated. NMUS-guided needle placement reports should include a description of the length and gauge of needle, the type of probe used, and an indication of how well the patient tolerated the procedure. All reports should clearly state whether the findings were normal or abnormal and include a definitive diagnosis. Conclusions: NMUS reports should provide comprehensive information along with a succinct conclusion, mirroring guidelines for electrodiagnostic reports. Muscle Nerve, 2013

AC Repair Cedar Park, TX | AC Services
Cedar Park is a major suburb of Austin and is known for being home to the Cedar Park Center which hosts many different entertainment events, including concerts, sporting events, and more. There are many people who choose to call this area home, and for good reason. It's a booming area that has a hometown-feel with a close proximity to a major city, offering jobs and easy-to-access healthcare services.
The area is known for having hot spring and summer seasons with mild winters. With the temperatures being warm throughout a lot of the year, homeowners need a trusted AC repair contractor they can trust to take care of repair and replacement work. As a homeowner, it is important for you to understand when it's time for replacement, or when you only need a simple repair.
The list below from Energy Star will help you to better determine if you need us for repair work, or if it's time to get a replacement unit installed.
1. The system is over a decade old. A new unit may help you to save up to 20% on your energy costs from month to month.
2. Your unit needs repair after repair to keep it running. This could indicate that the system is too old and inefficient to properly cool your family's home.
3. Some rooms in your home feel much warmer than they should. This may be caused from inadequate operation of your AC, or it could be from a problem involvinv your ducts or insulation - checking the AC is a good starting point.
4. Your home feels very humid, even with the windows closed. This could be from a cooling system not working like it should, or from leaking ducts.
5. The air conditioner is very loud and noisy when it runs. This may be from problems with the coils of your system. They may need to be repaired, or the unit may need to be replaced.
Broken AC Tips and Tricks
While you are waiting for us to show up to your home, there are a few things you can try to keep cool. Make sure that you open some windows to create air flow. This will help to create a breeze that will keep your family cool and comfortable. You can also wrap towels that have been rinsed through with cold water around your neck to help yourself from overheating. It may also be a good idea to try eating cold foods, such as ice cream.
21-Point Air Conditioning Precision Tune-Up and cleaning includes:
- Calibrate and level thermostat
- Clean filters if need be
- Monitor volts/amps on fan motor
- Lubricate and inspect bearings for wear
- Clean indoor coil if accessible by our NATE techician
- Flush/treat condensate drain with anti-algae
- Inspect condenser coil
- Monitor operating pressure of refrigerant
- Inspect safety devices for proper operation
- Inspect disconnect box for proper rating and installation
- Tighten all electrical connections
- Test/inspect contactors for burned, pitted contacts
- Inspect electrical system for exposed wiring
- Test and inspect capacitors
- Inspect fan blade
- Clean condenser coil and remove debris
- Inspect service valves for proper operation
- Measure temperature difference – supply/return
- Inspect duct work for energy loss
- Monitor compressor for proper amperage, volt draw & wiring connections
- Clean debris from around the condenser
90 minutes is all it takes to be assured of worry-free air conditioning performance - do this in spring and fall each year.
Please give us a call today if you would like to schedule an appointment with our team. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

TV On The Web On The TV
On this week's All Tech Considered, we return to a subject we first discussed in January: the state of TV on the Web and watching Internet content on your HDTV.
Over the last week, there's been a string of announcements, including the launch of search engine Clicker.com, a piece of hardware due out from Boxee, YouTube's introduction of 1080p-quality Web video and Dell's new Zino HD PC, which seems squarely aimed at living room Web viewing.
A few more bits related to our piece:
- TV Guide also has a service, My DVR for keeping track of online episodes of your favorite shows. TV critic Dale Roe tipped me off to the site.
- Will sites like Hulu keep the free ride going forever? It's not likely. Also: get ready for dual revenue streams and internal turf wars over Hulu ad rates.
- Internet-enabled TVs were the talk of January's Consumer Electronics Show, but we're just starting to see them roll into showrooms.
- One of many tutorials on how to hook up your computer to a television set.
- Rumors of an iTunes all-you-can-eat TV subscription service.
